Shen Xiangmiao smiled in the back: "This time the reception is not good, don't blame me for not enough etiquette as a niece, next time the eldest aunt comes to say hello in advance, I will definitely entertain well!" ”

Xu Shi fled in a panic, but when he heard this, he involuntarily trembled, stepped on his skirt in a trance, fell to the ground with a "bang", and hurriedly got up, and didn't even have time to pat the dust on his dress, and staggered to continue running.

Looking at the embarrassed appearance, Shen Xiangmiao couldn't help but laugh.

Hmph, this annoying aunt, with the bad idea of betraying her, in order to satisfy her selfish desire to deduct silver taels from it, but she still looks like she is all for your own good, and she looks like she is acting coyly, which is really disgusting.

Today, it can be regarded as a small punishment and a big commandment, so that she can remember it for a long time.

Hmph, dare to provoke her Shen Xiangmiao, keep it so that you can't finish eating and walking!

Shen Xiangmiao snorted, clapped her palms, and walked home with the barrel.

In the small courtyard surrounded by a fence tied with bamboo poles, Tie Dan slapped his palm: "My sister is so powerful, my sister is so powerful." ”

"Hehe, my sister is amazing, with my sister here in the future, no one will dare to bully us." Shen Xiangmiao stretched out her hand and rubbed this cute baby brother who looked at her with a look of adoration.

"Hmm!" Tie Dan nodded heavily, sucking the snot that was running down his mouth.

Lu Shi leaned on the wall and walked out of the thatched house: "Xiangmiao." ”

Due to years of hard work, she was already weak, and now it is the late spring season, the wheat is not yet ripe, but the grain tank at home is bottoming out, only some stick noodles are left, I am afraid that it will not be able to harvest the wheat, in order to make Shen Xiangmiao and Tie Dan, the sister and brother eat well, every day is just to cushion the stomach, and the body is getting thinner and thinner in a few days, and now it is almost unstable to stand.

Seeing this, Shen Xiangmiao hurriedly supported the Lu family: "Mother, you should lie on the bed and rest for a while." ”

Lu Shi snuggled up to Shen Xiangmiao and lay down on the bed that was very old and swayed slightly as soon as he sat down.

Seeing that Lu's face was not good, and his lips were even more pale and bloodless, Shen Xiangmiao suddenly felt distressed: "Mother, your body is so weak, you have to eat something nutritious to replenish your body." ”

"Mother is fine, just rest for a while." Lu Shi said with a strong spirit.

But he smiled bitterly in his heart, the tank in the house is about to see the bottom, where is the money to buy good things to replenish the body?

Shen Xiangmiao saw that Lu's expression was complicated with a little bitterness, and she could probably guess what she was thinking, but she didn't think so, smiled slightly, and said, "Xiangmiao will definitely be filial to her mother in the future." ”

"Good boy." Lu Shi stretched out his hand and touched Shen Xiangmiao's head, and then there was a look of worry: "This time, your eldest aunt has suffered such a big loss, she must be angry, the relationship between our two families, I am afraid that it will be ...... in the future."

"Mother." Shen Xiangmiao said: "Uncle Niang has this kind of temperament, what does it matter if the relationship between our two families is good or not?" The relationship is good, I am afraid that she will come to take advantage of our family again, looking for our family's affairs, and the relationship is poor, but the eldest aunt is afraid of suffering a loss and does not dare to come to the door. ”

"It's also ......"

Lu felt that what his daughter said was very reasonable.

"Uncle Niang suffered a loss this time, she must be scared, she doesn't dare to come to our house to make trouble for the time being, mother, you have a good rest, while it's not yet noon, the day is cool, I and Tie Dan go to the river to see, see if we can catch a few fish and come back, make up for my mother's body, and I and Tie Dan can also fight tooth sacrifices." Shen Xiangmiao proposed.

Lu's face was sallow, and it looked like it was caused by long-term malnutrition, and it was definitely not enough to only eat the stick noodles at home, so Shen Xiangmiao thought about finding something rich in protein and high in protein to replenish Lu's body.

Catching fish is very fast and cost-effective.

As soon as Tie Dan heard that he wanted to catch fish by the river, he immediately clapped his hands excitedly: "Okay, go to the river to catch fish." ”

"I'm afraid the fish in the river are not easy to catch." Lu Shi frowned.

It is true that there is a river in the west of the village, and there are often fish in the river, grass carp, carp, crucian carp, everything, but the people in the village live a hard life of coarse tea and light rice on weekdays, and they are reluctant to spend money to buy meat, so they naturally want to catch fish and fight tooth sacrifices. After a long time, the fish in the river became fine, and as soon as the people left, they immediately fled without a trace.

Although Shen Xiangmiao is already twelve years old, she is a big girl, but she is only a child, and the Lu family feels that they went to the river this time and returned in vain.

"Don't worry, I have my own way." Shen Xiangmiao said with a smile.

"Well, my sister beat away the eldest uncle, my sister is so powerful, she will definitely be able to catch fish, the reed roots by the river are sweet and sweet, even if you can't catch the fish, dig some reed roots and come back, it's not a loss!" Iron Egg grinned and wiped the snot from the corner of his mouth.

"I see you, it's not about helping my sister catch fish at all, I'm thinking about digging reed roots! I'll tell you, listen to your sister later, don't run around, and if you scare away the fish, you'll be punished for not eating at night. Shen Xiangmiao deliberately made a tiger face.

Tie Dan reached out and patted his chest, "Sister, don't worry, Tie Dan promises not to make trouble!" ”

Full of the appearance of a little adult, Shen Xiangmiao's face suddenly couldn't hold back, and she sneered.

Tie Dan saw his sister laughing, reached out and scratched the back of his head, and also smiled.

Telling the Lu family to rest at home, the sister and brother went out with a bamboo basket on their backs and walked to the west of the village.

The process of catching the fish went very smoothly, and soon, the sister and brother came back with a carp that was not small.

When he got home, Lu Shi had already gotten up from the bed, set up an iron pot, put water in it, and prepared to cook stick noodles and gruel for lunch.

"Mother, why are you up?" Shen Xiangmiao went over and helped Lu sit down.

"Mother saw that you hadn't come back yet, and knew that you must be hungry when you came back, so I thought about making lunch first." Lu Shi wiped the sweat on his forehead.

"Mother, we caught a fish!" Tie Dan shook the bamboo basket in his hand.

Lu Shi leaned over and took a look: "Such a big fish? ”

"Well, my sister caught it, my sister is so powerful." Tie Dan looked at Shen Xiangmiao with admiration, and his eyes were no less than that of a child in his previous life who saw Superman.

"Mother, go and rest, I killed the fish, let's stew fish soup and drink." Shen Xiangmiao didn't wait for Lu Shi to refuse, so she pulled her back to the house and lay down.

"Iron eggs, burn the fire."

"Okay." Iron Egg squatted by the stove and began to burn the fire.

Shen Xiangmiao took a bamboo basket and a kitchen knife to the water tank next to her to kill the fish.

The kitchen knife at home has been used for a long time, and it is rusty and dull, and it can't even cut the belly of the fish, and it can't scrape the scales.

Shen Xiangmiao frowned and put down the broken kitchen knife, and saw that Tie Dan was concentrating on burning the fire, deliberately turned sideways, rolled up his sleeves, and pressed down the seemingly inconspicuous black mark on his left arm, only the size of a sesame seed.

A seemingly virtual, but actually existing kitchen immediately in front of their own show, pots, bowls, scoops, spoons, knives, stoves and other kitchen tools are readily available, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, sugar, pepper, ingredients, green onions, ginger and other spices and seasonings are not lacking, there are also multiple storage rooms, each storage room can adjust different temperature and humidity, to preserve different food.
